Referring to FIG. 1, a system 100 is provided. System 100 in one example comprises at least one device 101. In one example, at least one device 101 comprises at least one telematics device 102, a predictive device 104, backend systems 106, and network 108. Telematics device 102 in one example is a device that collects, stores, and/or sends information about a living thing or object (“entity”). Such information includes, but is not limited to information regarding an entity's behavior, movement, condition and/or health. It must be noted that the term “telematics” is commonly associated with the use of Global Positioning Systems (GPS) technology that is commonly used in automotive navigations systems whereby telematics data is collected, stored and extracted from vehicle embedded platforms/hardware devices (e.g., as installed by the OEM, via an OBD self-install or a mobile device). The present disclosure is not limited to such technology, but rather is meant to encompass a broad array of devices, including vehicle navigation systems, that are used to collect, store, and send information about entities. Such devices include mobile devices, GPS devices, and the like, but also include other devices that can be associated with entities, such as REID tags, accelerometer devices, or small scale radio transceivers, to track movement, behavior, condition, and/or health of an entity. In addition, it is noted that telematics device 102 may also be a device that is not specifically associated with an entitiy, but nevertheless is capable of collecting, storing, and/or sending information about a living thing or object. An example would be a surveillance camera or traffic camera or a plurality of such devices working in concert. Another example of telematics devices are devices that are capable of collecting, storing, and/or sending biometric information about an individual, such as a blood pressure monitor, a heart rate monitor, a scale, a breathalyzer device, a skin elasticity monitor, a wearable computing device (e.g., a smart watch device), etc. It follows that the representation of telematics device 102 as a singular device is provided for illustrative purposes only. Telematics device 102 may comprise a single device or a plurality of devices working individually or in concert to collect, store, and/or send information about the behavior or movement of a living thing or object.

It is to be further appreciated that another aspect of the illustrated embodiments includes acquiring telematics data from third party database/services , which acquired data is leveraged to add one or more contextual aspects, including (but not limited to) traffic and weather intelligence with regards to the below discussed analysis of telematics data.

Predictive device 104 in one example is a device that receives information from telematics device 102 and processes such information to provide or assist in providing products, services, and information to individuals or organizations based on the information received from telematics device 102. An illustrative discussion of predictive device 104 will be provided in connection with FIG. 2 for illustrative purposes.

Back end systems 106 in one example are systems that exchange information with telematics device 102 and/or predictive device 104. Back end systems 106 in one embodiment may comprise the systems of an insurance carrier. In one embodiment, back end systems may comprise the systems of a partner with an insurance carrier. In one embodiment, back end systems 106 may comprise the system of a stand alone provider of products, services, and/or information. This description of back end systems 106 is not meant to be limiting. Back end systems 106 may comprise any or all of the preceding embodiments and in various combinations thereof. The designation of such entity as “back end systems” is mean for illustrative purposes and for ease of description. For instance, a back end system 106 may be configured and operational to exchange data from device 102 (e.g., a vehicle telematics device) to a home such that analytics are performed using the data in the home environment.

In one embodiment, the device 101 generally includes at least one memory device, at least one processor, and at least one data interface coupled via buses. Such devices may be coupled to another device or to peripheral devices. FIG. 1 depicts devices as standalone for illustrative purposes. Multiple devices may be coupled and function together as further described herein as part of a distributed processing environment. Exemplary devices 101 include, but are not limited to computing devices, such as mobile device (e.g. cell phones, smart phones, etc.), personal computers, notebook computers, tablet computers, servers, and telematics devices, such as personal or vehicular navigations systems or biometric devices (or computing devices with such functionality).

A memory device in one example comprises a computer-readable signal-bearing medium. One example of a computer-readable signal-bearing medium comprises a recordable data storage medium, such as a magnetic, electrical, optical, biological, and/or atomic data storage medium. In another example, a computer-readable signal-bearing medium comprises a modulated carrier signal transmitted over a network coupled. In one example, a memory device includes a series of computer instructions written in or implemented with any of a number of programming languages, as will be appreciated by those skilled in the art.

A processor is an electronic device configured of logic circuitry that responds to and executes instructions. A processor may comprise more than one distinct processing devices, for example to handle different functions. A processor may output results of an execution of the methods described herein to an output device connected to interface. Alternatively, a processor could direct the output to another device 101 via network.

A data interface may include the mechanical, electrical, and signaling circuitry for communicating data over a network or directly to another device 101. An interface may be configured to transmit and/or receive data using a variety of different communication protocols and various network connections, e.g., wireless and wired/physical connections. An interface may include an input device, such as a keyboard, a touch screen or a speech recognition subsystem, which enables a user to communicate information and command selections to a processor. An interface may also include an output device such as a display screen, a speaker, a printer, etc. An interface may include an input device such as a touch screen, a mouse, track-ball, or joy stick, which allows the user to manipulate the display for communicating additional information and command selections to a processor.

Devices 101 may communicate with each other directly or over a network 108. Network 108 may include a local area network (LAN) and/or a wide area network (WAN), but may also include other networks such as a personal area network (PAN). Such networking environments are commonplace in offices, enterprise-wide computer networks, intranets, and the Internet. For instance, when used in a LAN networking environment, devices 101 are connected to the LAN through a network interface or adapter (not shown). When used in a WAN networking environment, the computing system environment typically includes a modem or other means for establishing communications over the WAN, such as the Internet. The modem, which may be internal or external, may be connected to a system bus via a user input interface, or via another appropriate mechanism. In a networked environment, program modules may be stored in a remote memory storage device such as storage medium. Devices 101 may communicate over network 108 through one or more communications links 109. Communication links 109 may be wired (e.g. Ethernet, USB, Firewire, etc.) or wireless (e.g. Bluetooth, 802.11, 3GPP, 3GPP2, etc.) or a combination thereof. Devices 101 may also communicate with each other through other wireless technologies as (RFID, IrDA, barcodes).

Finally, it must be noted that the designation of telematics device 102, predictive device 104, and back end systems 106 as stand alone entities is provided for illustrative purposes. The functionality of these entities may be combined or divided.

Referring to FIG. 2, predictive device 104 in one example comprises a transceiving engine 202, a collection engine 204, an analysis engine 206, and an execution engine 208. The term “engine” denotes a functional operation that may be embodied either as a stand-alone component or as an integrated configuration of a plurality of subordinate components. Thus, an engine may be implemented as a single module or as a plurality of modules that operate in cooperation with one another. Moreover, an engine may be implemented as software instructions in memory or separately in any of hardware (e.g., electronic circuitry), firmware, software, or a combination thereof. In one embodiment an engine contains instructions for controlling a processor to execute the functionality described herein.

Referring further to FIG. 2, transceiving engine 202 provides the functionality by which information relating is exchanged (received and transmitted) between predictive device 104 and telematics device 102 and back end systems 106. Such functionality includes functionality for encoding, decoding, encrypting, and decrypting data for transmission over network 108.

Collection engine 204 in one embodiment provides the functionality by which data received from telematics device 102 and third party systems 106 is collected and organized. Such data includes but is not limited to data regarding a living thing or an object (an “entity”). Examples include: Information about an entity's movements, such as where an entity has traveled and the route that the entity has taken to reach a destination; information regarding the manner in which an entity traveled to a destination, such as the speed of the entity, braking force, the time of day; information regarding the conditions of such movement, such as the weather or traffic conditions, information about whether and how often other technology was used during the trip, such as mobile phone, computer or navigation system; information regarding the entity's stay at a destination, such as how long the entity stayed at a destination or whether there were other entities present; information regarding the nature of the destinations, such as weather the destination is a home or business, and the type of home or business (e.g. sale property, gym, restaurant, car dealer, etc.); and information about the health of the entity itself, such as vehicle diagnostic information or information about an individual's health, such as blood pressure, weight, blood composition, etc.

Analysis engine 206 in one embodiment comprises the functionality by which provider device analyzes data from telematics device 102 and/or third party systems and extracts meaning from such data. Analysis engine 206 in one example examines telematics data received from telematics device 102 and extracts meaning from the data provided from the telematics device 102. Such meaning may be extracted in different ways.

In one instance, analysis engine 206 may try to identify a pattern of behavior from telematics data and extract meaning from it. A pattern of behavior may be engaging in a certain type of behavior with at a certain level of frequency. For example, driving to the same address every day may indicate that an individual lives or works at the address. In another example, analysis engine 206 may evaluate patterns of behavior based on multiple variables. For instance, driving to the same address each day during business hours may have a different meaning than driving to the same address outside of business hours. Analysis engine 206 may interface with back end systems 106 to extract meaning from the data. For instance, analysis engine 206 may access insurance, tax, or business records to determine the nature of an address and infer as to why an entity is traveling to the address.

In another instance, analysis engine 206 may infer meaning from the absence of a particular type of behavior. For instance, if an entity were to drive to the same address every Monday through Friday, at the beginning of business hours, for five years, and the same entity were to suddenly stop driving to the address (and continued over a period of days to not drive to the address), then the failure to drive to the address may indicate that the entity was, but is no longer employed, by the business located at the address.

In another instance, analysis engine 206 may infer meaning from a sudden spike of activity. For example, if an entity were to suddenly start driving to an address of a fitness club after work, analysis engine 206 may determine that the individual is exercising regularly. In another example, if an entity were to begin regularly stopping at a maternity store, analysis engine 206 may determine that the entity is expecting a child. A subsequent overnight stay in a maternity ward of a hospital would confirm that a child was born.

Referring further to FIG. 2, in one embodiment, vehicle telematics data is received from telematics device 102. In one example, such vehicle telematics data includes, but is not limited to, vehicle maintenance records and/or driving style (e.g. speed, braking habits, etc.). Analysis engine 206 utilizes such information in the calculation of a premium for an insurance policy. Alternatively, such information may be used to calculate eligibility and pricing for an extended vehicle protection program.

Referring further to FIG. 2, in one embodiment, location telematics data is received from telematics device 102. In one example, such telematics data includes, but is not limited to, the record of where a particular entity has physically been over a period time. Analysis engine 206 in one example overlays such location data against data identifying the location of various businesses or organizations. If a particular entity has been proximate to a particular business or organization at a given level of frequency, analysis engine 206 may determine that such entity may be interested in targeted advertising or in promotional offers related to such businesses or organizations.

Referring further to FIG. 2, in one embodiment, health telematics data is received from telematics device 102. In one example, such health telematics data includes, but is not limited to, vehicle maintenance records or health records of an individual. Analysis engine 206 may utilize such information in conjunction with location telematics data to determine product or service providers that may be of interest to the entity. The analysis engine 206 may determine that the entity may be interested in targeted advertising or promotional offers based on the health of the entity and location telematics data. For instance, if a car needed an oil change, the analysis engine 206 may identify oil change shops within the proximity of telematics device 102. If an individual were sick, as determined by biometric sensors, then analysis engine may identify doctors' offices, pharmacies, or hospitals near telematics device 102.

Referring further to FIG. 2, in one embodiment, telematics data is received from telematics device 102. In one example, analysis engine 206 utilizes such telematics data to determine the relevancy of such data to a life insurance policy premium and develop a new system for underwriting and/or pricing life insurance. Risky and/or safe driving behavior as collected by the telematics device 102 and analyzed by the engine 206 may warrant modified decisions or prices based specifically on the inherent additional (or lower) risk of driving. Additionally, driving behavior may be a significant predictor of risk for all causes of life insurance peril. As such, its impact on life insurance extends much beyond the direct risk of driving. In another example, if an individual drives an automobile in poor condition, then analysis engine 206 may determine that a life insurance policy premium should be increased, or vice versa (e.g. vehicle in good condition). In another example, if an individual's biometric sensors indicate that the individual is making poor life style choices (e.g. drinking, smoking, gaining weight, etc.), then analysis engine 206 may determine that a life insurance policy premium should be increased, or vice versa (e.g. good lifestyle choices).

Referring further to FIG. 2, in one embodiment, location telematics data is received from telematics device 102. In one example, analysis engine 206 utilizes such location telematics data to predict life events for users of telematics device 102 and based on predicted life event determine if there is a form of assistance that can be offered to the user. Examples include, but are not limited to: If an entity travels to properties that are for sale with certain degree of frequency, analysis engine 206 may determine that the entity is in the market for new home and may determine that targeted advertising or products (e.g. home inspection, mortgage products) related to a new home sale may be of interest to the entity; in another example, if an entity travels to a car dealership with a certain degree of frequency, then analysis engine 206 may determine that the entity is in the market for a new car and determine that targeted advertising or products (e.g. sale price, auto loans, etc.); in another example, if an entity drives to residential addresses before driving to a large business, the analysis engine 206 may infer that the entity is part of a car pool, and determine that an insurance rate adjustment may be warranted; in another example, if an entity regularly drives to an elementary or middle school, analysis engine 206 may infer that the entity has children and use such information to adjust an insurance rate; in another example, if an entity regularly drives to a high school, analysis engine 206 may infer that the entity has high school age children and that such children should be added to an insurance policy; in another example, if an entity regularly drives to a particular type of business (e.g. a payday loan business), then analysis engine 206 may determine that the entity is in need of financial or career assistance;

Referring further to FIG. 2, in one embodiment, location telematics data, time of day traveled, day of week traveled, and hours spent at a particular location are received from telematics device 102. In one example, analysis engine 206 utilizes such telematics data along with other available data to predict the best channel and time of day to contact users of telematics device 102, thereby increasing the likelihood of successful contact to provide information or product offers. Examples include, but are not limited to: If an entity is consistently located at a particular residence between the hours of 7 pm and 9 am and regularly uses their cellular phone from 8 pm to 10 pm, analysis engine 206 may determine the best time to contact the entity is between 8 pm to 10 pm and the best method of contact is their cellular phone. Similarly, the analysis engine may determine the entity regularly visits carrier's website between the hours of 8 pm and 10 pm on Wednesday evenings when all of the entity's vehicles are located at a particular residential address. The best method of contact in this case may be an email or website notice slightly before the time the entity typically visits the site.

Referring further to FIG. 2, execution engine 208 in one example comprises the functional block that acts in response to determinations made by analysis engine 206. In one example, once analysis engine 206 makes a determination, it will notify execution engine 208, which will then effect a certain result in response to the determination. For instance, if analysis engine 206 determines that an insurance premium should be adjusted, execution engine 208 will communicate with back end systems 106, which may be an insurance company server, to effect a premium adjustment. In another example, if analysis engine 206 determines that an entity would be interested in targeted advertising, products, and/or services, execution engine 208 will communicate with back end systems 106, which may be servers of advertising providers or purveyors of products and services, to provide such targeted communications to the entity. It should be noted that predictive device 104 may, in some examples, be operated by purveyor of targeted advertising, products, and/or services; hence, the representation of predictive device 104 as separate from back end devices 106 is done for illustrative purposes only.

With reference now to FIG. 3, shown is a flow chart demonstrating implementation of the various exemplary embodiments. It is noted that the order of steps shown in FIG. 3 is not required, so in principle, the various steps may be performed out of the illustrated order. Also, certain steps may be skipped, different steps may be added or substituted, or selected steps or groups of steps may be performed in a separate application following the embodiments described herein.

Starting at step 302, and as mentioned above, telematics device 101 receives telematics data (preferably from one or more sensors (e.g., telematics data capturing devices)) with regards to an entity, which data includes, but is not limited to, data regarding a living thing (e.g., a human) or an object (e.g., a vehicle). For instance, the received telematics data may relate to behavioral, movement, object condition and health data. The telematics data may additional relate to vehicle diagnostic information and/or an individual's health. Next, at step 304, the received telematics data is preferably collected and organized, preferably via collection engine 204 of predictive device 104.

Next, at step 306, the received and collected telematics data is analyzed. As mentioned above, predictive device 104 (via analysis engine 206) analyzes data from telematics device 102 and/or third party systems and extracts meaning from such data. Analysis engine 206 in one example examines telematics data received from telematics device 102 and extracts meaning from the data provided from the telematics device 102. Such meaning may be extracted in different ways. For instance, analysis of received telematics data may include determining a certain type of behavior at a certain level of frequency to determine behavioral conclusion, wherein determining a certain type of behavior at a certain level of frequency includes determination of travel to a certain location at a certain time period. Analysis of received telematics data may further include analyzing business record data relating to a certain location wherein the business record data, for example may relate to tax, insurance and business filings. Analysis of received telematics data may further include determining a change in behavioral pattern whereby frequency of travel to a certain location has changed by a prescribed value (e.g., travel to a certain location has ceased or increased).

Next, at step 308, predictive device 104 is configured and operational to determine conclusions (e.g., behavioral conclusions) based upon the analyzed telematics data (step 306). As mentioned above, analysis engine determines meaning from the telematics data. It is noted in accordance with the illustrated embodiments, behavioral conclusions (e.g., “meaning”) includes, but are not limited to: a change in employment; change in marital status, change in family size (e.g., birth and/or death); a change in residence; a change in an entity's health condition; and/or a change in an entity's insurance risk profile.

Proceeding to step 310, analysis engine 206 (via execution engine 208) is configured and operational to perform certain actions responsive to the aforesaid determinations/conclusions. That is, and as mentioned above, if analysis engine 206 determines that an insurance premium should be adjusted, execution engine 208 will communicate with back end systems 106, which may be an insurance company server, to effect a premium adjustment.

The techniques described herein are exemplary, and should not be construed as implying any particular limitation on the present disclosure. It should be understood that various alternatives, combinations and modifications could be devised by those skilled in the art. For example, steps associated with the processes described herein can be performed in any order, unless otherwise specified or dictated by the steps themselves.
